. USC socc By RICHARD BREEN Staff writer St The Gamecocks have a national C ranking, a high-scoring offense, a fr new scoreboard and a shot at post- st season play. m And they're not the football team. i The squad mentioned above is the i icr ? ...u: :? - t ujv. juv.1.vi ivmu, which tallies it No. 2 national ranking by Soccer America magazine into the 1987 season. h ^ USC head coach Mark Berson says j he thinks the lofty standing is an accurate but unscientific estimation. j "it's definitely a real positive statement about our program," Berson said. "But it's a projection of the season; it's not really based on anything concrete." While Berson takes the ranking >' with a grain of salt, he says preseason pressure is nothing new to the Gamecocks. "We're used to facing that," Bcr- < son said. "Traditionally, we've had to play our best games every time ?! out." A "best game" this season should fpatnrp nlrntv r?f crnrino at r?ff??ncf? will be Carolina's calling card. Senior co-captain Doug Allison Z will spearhead the attack. The Barnstaple, England, native is USC's all- .s time leading scorer and had 15 goals j?j and nine assists in 1986. Allison H won't be alone up front, however. U.S. Olympic festival star Scott jj-. Cook (nine goals, five assists) adds p speed to the lineup and talented inter- ^ mcuiuiuti> vjiciiviiic rope vnvc goai:>, r seven assists) and Ami Arntliorsson (four goals, seven assists) will spread defenses out even further. The midfield also looks strong behind a combination of old and new 5 talent.

This il?l?|l season l.oeber was hurt in pre- fefgMfii festival training and is wearing a knee brace. tiSlSi Finding a replacement for l.oeber was a major objective at training tefil camp, Berson said. "Mike Gosselin has done well in three scrimmages, p25j?3 and Ari Jonsson has played well when given the opportunity." Gosselin, a freshman from Auburn, Wash., looked experienced beyond his years against Coastal KMa Carolina and USC-Spartanburg. With that problem seemingly solved, Carolina looks ready to open their schedule against Francis Marion at I he Graveyard Tuesday at 5 p.m. rpip The starting time is later than KSl'SI previous years, Berson said, beacause fjgg area kids will have more time to get llllSl to the games from school.
